Process Progress Post!!!

***Shop Hop post soon coming!!

In the meantime, here is my latest progress!!!

Another Project Linus quilt! Isn't it adorable!

Here's what I am going to use for the main part of the backing. It isn't big enough on its own though so I will be adding some borders.

Here is my completed top for a Cafe Mom, "Quilting Mom's" Round Robin. Isn't it WONDERFUL!!

Two boomerang blocks!

Finished Project Linus quilt top!

Jacob giving his seal of approval!

This is just a left over part of a quilt I made a couple of years ago...I threw on a linen border and I plan on just quilting it into a table center piece / candlemat. Jacob again, giving that stamp of approval, lol.

He's so darn cute!

Next post should be the SHOP HOP pics!!! We won LOTS of goodies!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Latest Process Pledge Update!

Well, today I have been working on projects for the Expo show on the 26th.

Here is my progress / process pics:

Here is a child's apron:

Here is another one that I haven't finished yet:

And here is what I am thinking for the tie, although I may not have enough of this fabric to do just this:

Here is a table runner top that I completed. I still have to baste and quilt it:

And here is a candle mat. I did this one envelope style, so you can see the area that I still have to stitch closed. I also need to quilt it:

And here is a mini lil' decor pillow I made. (I am showing you both sides).

Process Update...........

Well, here is my first process post!

I am working on a "pinks and greens" quilt. This is probably going to end up being a Project Linus quilt, but I haven't decided for sure yet. I like the lighter / shabby chic-ish pinks and greens and in the swap I am in, I have received a lot of these bright/vibrant pinks and greens..........so, I am thinking I will put them into a quilt of their own. Here are the blocks laid out:

I am thinking I will add sashing and then several borders.

Any thoughts would be great!!

Here is the panel I bought to make a quilt for my son :) I think it would be a great rememberence of our time in Nevada!

I purchased two panels that each had 6 squares. I decided to cut them into rows of three and I am thought I would put sashing between each row.

Here are my correlating fabrics:

And here is what I am going to use for the backing:

I went back and forth on exactly how to place the sashing on. I had a little help, as you can see, lol.

This is what I decided on for the horizontal sashing:

Whatdya think?? You can see the borders I am going to sew on.

Then I am thinking I am going to put a wide border on the outside of those thinner borders. Maybe a 5" or 6" of the cream correlating fabric.

I took the PROCESS PLEDGE!

Well,
Here's the basic idea......we all post finished projects on our blogs. I always think to myself "no one wants to see my in-progress pics. Why would anyone care what lil 'ol me is in the process of making".
WRONG!!!! I LOVE to read blogs with lots of pictures of works in progress! How inspiring they are to me.
So.............I took the Process Pledge.

It states:
I, Lisa, pledge to talk more about my processes, even when I can’t quite put them in the in words or be sure I’m being totally clear. I’m going to put my thinking and my gut feelings out there.
